Tia's unwell

Hi Nikki - really sorry to hear Tia is unwell. One of the biggest dangers with cats vomiting and having the runs is dehydration so you are absolutely doing the right thing in taking her to the vets. I'd try to encourage her to drink plenty of water between now and then (easier said than done!).

Not sure about Diego, I guess it depends on whether Tia just has an upset stomach or some sort of bug. Hopefully the vet can advise tonight. In the meantime may be best to keep seperate dishes out? Can anyone else advise on this?

Please let me know how you get on.

We've been to the vets, he has given Tia a thorough check up, she has had to have an antibiotic injection, and i have to give her drinks of Glutalyte, to keep her hydrated, he was concerned at how burnt Tia's throat is, and we have to take her back to see him at 5.30pm tommorow, so we wont know any more until tommorow.

Hi Linda,

we went back to the vets this evening, and he checked Tia over again, he was really pleased at how well her tum had settled down(although trying to
give her, her medicine in a syringe was not easy).

she has had another antibiotic injection, and been given a course of tablet
antibiotics that will last 5 days.
we have to keep her off her normal food until her tum(and bum) return to
normal, feeding her white fish in the mean time.

She is still very much under the weather, but much better than yesterday,as
she spent most of yesterday under our bed in a ridged ball howling in pain.

Thank you for your kind P.M.

all the very best
